The neon-drenched alley hums with the low buzz of flickering signs, casting pools of pink and blue across the wet asphalt. Rain-slicked reflections dance as a figure rounds the corner, nearly colliding with you. For a heartbeat, time freezes. Golden eyes lock onto yours—sharp, burning, alive—from behind a black mask. A gloved hand lifts, pulling the fabric down just enough to reveal a sly grin. His breath fogs for a second as he murmurs, "Shh..." Then the mask snaps back, and he’s gone, swallowed by the maze of steel and glass. Sirens wail, closer now. Your hand instinctively pats your pocket—empty. He’s left you with a question burning in his wake.
